According to the 2008 National Association of REALTORS® Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, 87% of all homebuyers used the Internet as an information source. I came across a comment on a real estate blog today that really hits home on what I believe about technology and its role in real estate: “Technology will never replace the Agent; however the Agent who uses technology will replace the Agent who does not.” We can twitter, facebook, blog, etc., until our faces turn blue, but in the end, there’s still a human factor that makes Realtors invaluable to buyers and sellers. An agent’s real job is putting a face on everything and making it real. Home, like family, is mostly heart, not just mind.
